Scientific PROOF that Adam and eve were the first people?

Question

The population of the earth was 6 billion in the year 2000.
In 1500 the population of earth was 450 million. Assuming the same growth rates over the last 6000 years.....(im going to round)
In 1,000 A.D. 33,758,000 people on earth
In 500 A.D. 2,530,000 people
in the year 0 190,000 people
500 BC 14,250
1000 BC 1070 people
1500 BC 80 people
2000 BC 6 people
I know what you are saying...6 people in 2000 BC? No way. But we cant use traditional math now because we dont know exactly how many kids were being born per family.A few extra kids here and there can really push the time line back. Not to mention that now we are getting into the time when people lived to be 900 years old according to the bible so traditional math doesnt work. Also remember that it was around this time that God sent the flood and killed everyone on earth. That explains the low population count also in the year 2000 B.C. The math isnt perfect but its close.

Ok you smarty pants....tell me with your monkey evolved brains the math that humans have been on earth for a million years.

Answer 1

I don't need scientific proof that Adam and Eve were the first two people - I have the Holy Bible!@~

Answer 2

That math isn't remotely close. We have documentable evidence of numbers that blow that theory out of the water. If in 1000 BC there were only 1070 people, China and Egypt and many other populations we know of, with evidence, wouldn't have existed. The Bible itself has stories that couldn't be supported with those numbers.

This is also given the lie with radiocarbon dating.

The numbers are completely impossible.

Growth rates weren't linear over time. The present growth rate was not sustainable just 200 years ago. Advances through the years have made dramatic changes in the way populations have grown and you have completely ignored the facts. There are many web sites which can show you much better approximations as to what populations were over the ages, and rather than relying on your basic math skills alone, you might try looking at some evidence.

Answer 3

There is no mathematic way to prove it. I believe Adam and Eve were the first two people on earth because the Bible says so. By the way, there were 8 people around 2000 B.C. You should know that if you did your math right. :) There was Noah (1), his wife (2), Shem and his wife (3 & 4), Ham and his wife (5 & 6), and Japheth and his wife (7 & 8). They were the ones on the ark during the great flood (but I'm sure you already know that).

Answer 4

You're not even close at all.

Population growth and death rates are not constant. You're also forgetting that there could have been years that had more people die than born from disease and war, and other years where more people are born than die, and there is no way to know how long such years lasted. In the end there is no way to calculate such a thing by the methods you're using.

Sorry but it just doesn't work that way. And by the way the ages of people years ago were overly inflated. No one ever lived longer than 130 at maximum.

You really need to educate yourself.

The Evidence for Human Evolution
http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/homs/

The talkorigins website is where the verifiable facts are. Not religion. Religion is superstitious nonsense written by men who didn't have the benefits of science. Live in reality, not fantasy.

Answer 5

"no real disagreement can exist between the theologian and the scientist provided each keeps within his own limits. . . . If nevertheless there is a disagreement . . . it should be remembered that the sacred writers, or more truly ‘the Spirit of God who spoke through them, did not wish to teach men such truths (as the inner structure of visible objects) which do not help anyone to salvation’; and that, for this reason, rather than trying to provide a scientific exposition of nature, they sometimes describe and treat these matters either in a somewhat figurative language or as the common manner of speech those times required, and indeed still requires nowadays in everyday life, even amongst most learned people"

Answer 6

If you have to cook up pseudoscientific arguments to justify your religious beliefs, then you are not exercising faith.

Faith does NOT mean seeking evidence to bolster what you want to believe. Faith means choosing to believe something in spite of lack of evidence.

The three great Catholic communions apparently understand this. It is noticeable that it's only the Protestants who breed such nonsense as "intelligent design", trying to find evidence to support beliefs they are not ready to give up when the evidence contradicts their beliefs.

The Pope can be a Christian and accept evolution. It's only the ignorant Protestant fundies who paint themselves into a corner with their ridiculous worship not of a Man but of a book. So don't waste your neurons and Yahoo's pixels on your attempted timescale. Try reading some real books about population and anthropology.

Answer 7

Actually your math isn't even vaguely close.

You have utterly failed to take into account:

Changing life spans.
Mass epidemics.
Changing reproductive periods.
Changes in medicine.
Changes in healing knowledge.
Migrations.
Wars.

Ad infinitum.

That's not even mentioning that humans have never, ever had a lifespan of 900 years. Hell, for someone NOW to live 100 years is nothing short of amazing. Never mind that anthrpological forensic evidence demonstrates that the human lifespan back in the Stone Age was MAYBE forty years...if they were lucky.

Answer 8

I do believe the human population came from Adam and Eve but these calculations are not scientific proof. Scientific proof is when everyones DNA is traced back to a common ancestor.

Answer 9

Why do you want that information for? in the journey that they were no longer existed the position did you get their call from . everybody is unusual ,even as evolution remains a concept with out any concrete information on technological information they war their magnificent to voice it because the actuality. even as ask how the first life in the international exist they say with assistance from twist of destiny by danger with assistance from party and whats no longer which isn't a clinical answer in any respect.

Answer 10

One thing that is fallacious about your argument is that birth and death rates have not been consistent over the centuries. Even as late as 150 years ago many, many children died before reaching adulthood. You have bubonic plague, dysentery, diphtheria, smallpox, malaria, typhoid, typhus, etc.
Also, in the modern age people are having fewer children.

Your calculation is by no means "proof", and remember even Young-Earth Theorists think its older than that.

Answer 11

There wasn't the same growth rate. It's common sense. There weren't as many people so the growth rate was much slower.

You make me sad with your lack of logic and your lack of understanding of history. There were records of an advanced Chinese civilization in 4000 B.C.
